12 hair trends from Fashion Week Fall/Winter 2017-2018

Hair that flows free, full of movement, styled simply with water, like at Stella McCartney or just touched up by hand, hairstylists certainly weren’t pushed for time backstage when styling this look. The natural look is the biggest trend of this season, letting hair speak for itself.

We haven’t seen the last of wet locks tucked behind the ears. Although the same concept was seen on the Spring/Summer 2017 runways, where hair was perfectly straight and lacquered, next season’s look is more relaxed with added height. An effect created with just a simple swipe of your hand.

All eyes were on a handful of models from New York to Paris thanks to their highly pigmented, brightly-colored hair. From canary yellow to electric blue, along with fluorescent pink, when it comes to color this season, anything goes as long as hair is well hydrated and cared for.

While the Spring/Summer runways were packed with tight coil curls, next winter’s are more relaxed, loose and natural.

The bowl cut

Catherine McNeil set the tone just a few days into New York Fashion Week: the bowl cut is back. The model’s hair was cut by Guido Palau backstage at the Alexander Wang show, with a new 90s-style tomboy-cut, a style that was copied throughout other shows for the nicest surprise of the season.

Grunge

The grunge look was another surprise this season, and it definitely packed a punch. With wet hair, alternative buns and rebellious strands that refused to stay in place, the look was pulled off with punch and panache.
